A poem titled, "Sequence."

This is me, not being a fan of techno. This is me, fawning over a man who is. This is I, having a fear of not being able to live. This is me, speaking when there is nothing to be said. So I speak, speak, and speak. I know that silence is terrifying. This is me, holding up a sign bluntly advocating insecurities. This is me, knowing that beauty is gratifying. This is me, questioning that last stanza.
